Windows 11 keeps trying to install different stuff, notifying you about how great edge is, requires new hardware, and more. Windows 12 is rumored to be cloud only with a subscription?

What will do you?

I am running Win11(pro) because the new Intel CPUs require it.

It's completely fine. I use Firefox without edge annoying me. There are no apps that just pop up out of nowhere (that I know of). It's fine. I locked down all the temeletry shit like I did on Win10.

The only thing annoying me is the change in the preview in folder icons. I wanna see the pictures that are in the folder not the. xmp files Darktable creates.

Say what? Why does it require it?

IIRC it has something to do with the process scheduling in 10 and lower that is not discerning between efficiency and performance cores

[–] Ciryamo@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, Win10 can't properly handle the efficency cores. So it's either upgrade to Win11 or disable the cores. (Or play with terrible random stutters)
